Abstract A model of the formation of defects and their effect on the change in the physicochemical and structural properties of zinc-based metal nanostructures is proposed. In this study, it has been found that an increase in the radiation dose leads to the appearance of inhomogeneous amorphous inclusions in the structure, which can initiate partial destruction of Zn nanotubes. At the same time, for heavy ions Kr14+ and Xe22+, cascades of defects lead to the formation of porous regions on the surface of nanostructures, which result from amorphization of the structure. When nanostructures are irradiated with heavy ion fluxes with an energy >100 MeV, as a result of the interaction of incident particles with lattice atoms, the size and number of subcascade and cascade inclusions increases, which leads to partial destruction of the structure and a change in morphology.
